Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.

— Eleanor Roosevelt

Reflection

Yesterday can teach you, but you can’t change it. Tomorrow deserves planning, but you can’t control it. Today is where you actually get to do something. It’s easy to lose the present replaying a mistake, worrying about what might happen next, or waiting for the right moment to begin. Learn from the past. Prepare for the future. But give your best energy to the work, people, and opportunities right in front of you. Today is the only day you can actually live. Don’t spend it somewhere else.

Looking forward,
